Board votes campus move 00
by Dave Greener
The "light" changed to
"green" and as many believed,
God Himself seemed to say
"Go." After a decade of dream-ing,
planning and praying, the
.road to college relocation was
opened by a recent Board of
Regents' decision to move Beth-el
to Arden Hills by the fall of
1972
For the first time, action is
imminent.
"The plan," as President
Lundquist briefly introduced it
to applauding students in Tues-day's
chapel, "is to proceed im-mediately
with the construction
of the new college campus."
As recently as January, im-mediate
relocation prospects
were dismal. The economic pic-ture
was clouded with inflation
and lacked adequate funds. As
Regents board member Burt
Wessman summed it, "Things
looked 2retty bleak."
But in February, more prom-ising
events took place. Perhaps
most importantly, Arthur Hage,
head of a construction company
and a Bethel alumnus with an
interest in the new campus (he
also helped build the Seminary
Apartments), sought to combine
with a national architectural
company (Ellerbe Architects ),
and offered Bethel a modified
and lower costing college pro-posal.
This met preliminary ac-ceptance
by Bethel's Building
Committee and the resulting de-tails
included not only a lower
cost through the redesigns, but
a guaranteed cost as well.
Hage-Ellerbe presented their
findings before the Regents on
April 2. Some members had
been aware of these new hopes,
others didn't realize the meeting
by Nancy Classen
Bethel College Choir com-pletes
an exciting tour of the
Pacific Northwest this week, ar-riving
Wednesday by bus. On the
trip across-country to Seattle,
where their first concerts were
held, the choir traveled through
such scenic spots as Mt. Rainier
National Park, Washington.
Daily concerts, sometimes twice
might be a turning point. But
all thirteen voted to accept the
proposal and proceed with con-struction.
And as Wessman re-lates,
"The atmosphere in the
meeting was such that His will
was evident."
After preliminary arrange-ments
and site development, Ar-den's
Hills will reverberate to the
sounds of construction begin-ning
June 28, when the annual
General Conference meeting is
held in St. Paul. The new design
includes five major building
units: a classroom unit, a lec-ture-
recital hall, a library-food
service center, a gym, and an
administrative-student services
building. The cost is guaranteed
daily, carried the choir north
into Canada, where they sang
at the Vancouver Bible Institute,
and returned them to the Port-land
area for Easter weekend.
On Sundays the choir members
were free to travel in small
groups.
At their homecoming con-certs,
April 23-24 at 8 :00 p.m.
the choir will offer the high-caliber
music their tour
at $6 ,271 ,500 ; more than $2
million less than the original
cost savings may be possible
as well. All buildings will be
air-conditioned and they are de-signed
for 1200 students,
with room for up to 400 more.
While the complex will be 20
percent smaller than the first
plan, the new design represents
a loss of but "15,000 less square
feet for actual teaching purpos-es."
The new Bethel will be built
under a "fast track" program
that facilitates rapid construc-tion.
One advantage of the new
proposal is that it is readily
adaptable to "phasing" in the
event that funds are inadequate.
audiences enjoyed to the Bethel
community. Dr. Berglund says
the "Three Spirituals" by
Heinz Werner Zimmerman will
be sung as "premier of the
work." The spirituals, composed
by an acclaimed European choral
musician, were dedicated to the
memory of Martin Luther King.
Jr. Other numbers may preview
next year's European tour: the
Swedish "I am the Bread of
Life" by Sven-Erick-Bock and
the German "Die Mit Tranen
Saen" by Hermann Schein.
"Song of Galilee" by Julius
Chayes and "B'shuv Adonai" by
Havley Ades, both in Hebrew,
are two more contemporary ar-rangements.
Cost of the concert is just
$1 .00-2 .00 for non-students.
Tickets may be purchased at the
Music Office.
Paul Ohlin has accepted the
job of project administrator for
the new college. Ohlin, a Con-ference
Baptist, has been asso-ciated
with a well-known eastern
company (the Fuller Company)
and his credentials inelude being
the project manager when the
Metropolitan Opera House was
built in New York City. He
leaves a project in Florida to
come to work for Bethel.
Now that the first step has
been taken, as President Lund-quist
says, "We will trust that
God will lead the rest of the
way."
As board member Arnold
Wicklund comments, "There is
going to be a lot of building by
faith right at this time."
To help nurture faith great
enough to move a college, pray-er
groups are being organized
(For example, the Seminary
on Tuesdays, 12 :30 - 12 :50
for the rest of the school year).
Paul Wesslund views the
new college as "a great spiritual
venture rather than just a build-ing
program." And President
Lundquist, recognizing that suc-cess
"rests in _great measure on
the Holy Spirit," hopes that the
new Beth-el will be "the House
of God that prayer built."

Four people becoming one in the Holy Spirit
on the way to and from Daytona Beach. Personal
spiritual growth, a vital part of this year's trek to
Florida. Beach evangelism, sure -- and the birth of
many new children of God.
But that's not the whole story. God teaching us
so many exciting lessons during those nine days...
"Let's sing!"
And we did. Singing every song we knew, and
lots we didn't. Singing through the alphabet again
and again. Learning new songs - "but what do
those words mean?"
Singing about our "Dear Jesus" in the gas sta-tion.
"Do you love Him, too?"
"My Lord knows the way through the wilder-ness."
Taking the most beautiful detour imaginable.
And braaaking on the long, steep incline.
"Are you sure we're going east?"
"Blessed assurance..."
A blow-out. Standing around freezing, enjoying
every minute of it.
"Thankyou, Lord."
Sharing with the maid, the saleslady, the kids
on the beach. And with one another. Growing to-gether
in His love.
Trusting you. Letting you know me. Touching
your soul.
Feeling a great burden for Doug, and praising
God for another answered prayer. Growing in
faith. Seeing God work again and again.
Riding a wave. Diving into another one.
Getting five dollars for a used hospital armband.
Taking off - again.
"I have no idea where we are."
Praying with the lady in the restroom. Rejoic-ing
in newfound dependence upon the Holy Spirit.
Drawing a circle of love that includes everyone.
Discovering how open people are to God's love
and plan. And to the Bridge over the chasm sepa-rating
God and man.
"And can it be?"
Driving and riding. Riding and driving.
Making another oil change.
A cracked U-joint in the drive shaft. Singing
to Him. Praying. "`Tis Grace has brought us safe
thus far, and Grace will lead us home." Lacking
time and money. Watching God take care of both.
Sharing and praying together.
"Are you sure you know the Way?"
"Yes. I have decided to follow Jesus."

Students react to AAES
Campus leaders
confront issues
Oral Roberts University campus, in Tulsa Oklahoma, was the scene of the
second annual AAES convention.
by Joey Healy
The American Association of
Evangelical Students ( AAES )
held its second annual conven-tion
at Oral Roberts University,
Tulsa, Oklahoma, March 24-28.
Bethel sent seven delegates this
year, including Elden Elieth,
Bob Miko, Harold Hogan, Dave
Blake, Joey Healy, Thomas M.
Billigmeier, and Joel Goff. Dean
Muck also attended as advisor.
"Confronting the Issues" was
the central theme, and there
were varied feelings concerning
the fulfillment of this goal. A
substantial amount of time
spent in AAES business meet-ings
and Evangelical Student
Congress did take valuable time
which might have been spent in
committee meetings and sem-inars.
Kenneth Oman, the 1970 -71
President of the AAES summar-ized
the purposes of the Associa-
Kenneth Oman, former
bills that were voted upon
tion, in his introductory report.
These quests were commitment
to Christian higher education,
responsibility to develop creat-ive
student leadership, oppor-tunity
to develop social aware-ness,
and function as a national
voice of evangelical youth.
Two major seminars were
held, both directly involved
with the purposes of the
AAES: "Student Leadership at
a Christian College," and
"Christianity and Contemporary
Culture." Several social events
were on the agenda, as well.
A reception was held at Presi-dent
Oral Robert's mansion, the
World Action Singers performed
drama production "Taming of
the Shrew" was presented, and a
special mixer featured the ORU
jazz band.
Vice-President Thomas M.
Billigmeier's initial comments
might well be understood, in the
light of all this. "I enjoyed the
whole time, especially because
it was my first convention, and
it became a learning experience.
I felt, though, that we tried to
do too much in the little time
we had. We were, in effect, rail-roading
the bills through in the
last session, which is too bad be-cause
these will be published
and the ESC will be judged
based upon the resolutions
which were passed and defeated.
"I felt pressured and unsure
of some of my votes because
there was virtually no time for
deliberation on the bill at hand.
Some of the bills had good resol-utions
but weak or questionable
rationale, and vice-versa.
"I feel that it is good, though,
for us as evangelical colleges to
get together and make definite
stands on issues which would
hopefully reflect those of the
greater evangelical world, as
well."
President Joel Goff's first re-action
was "one of awe as I have
never before met so many kids
who are aware of what is going
on around the Christian cam-puses
of our country. I secretly
wished they were all in my Sen-ate
at Bethel.
"I was very impressed by the
serious attitude most of them
had in regards to the conven-tion.
They had come to get
something done. As far as the
AAES is concerned, I am very
optimistic as to what it can do if
it moves in certain directions.
I rejoiced when we moved along
Scriptural lines in our legisla-tion;
I feel that this is what our
main purpose should be if we
are to accomplish anything.
"Many students mentioned
that they lacked student power.
I feel that the only way this can
be obtained is to act as mature
Christians. The major legislation
I was interested in was from the
committee on education. I was
really excited to hear N.E. Re-gional
Chairman Dan Riggall's
speech. I agree with him, that
our concern should not be re-lating
Christianity to a particu-lar
discipline but rather formu-lating
and developing disciplines
which are based on the Christian
presuppositions. Talking with
him and others gave me some
real ideas on this whole princi-ple.
Five committees were f
ed: Campus Governance, Christ-ian
Witness, Domestic Concerns,
Foreign Affairs, and Education-al
Direction. After individual
committees met, they were sub-divided
into smaller groups
which worked on a position pa-per,
resolution or mandate to
be brought back to the larg-er
committee. After the piece of
legislation was passed by the
committee, it could be brought
up during the legislative session
of the Congress.
In this manner, a large num-ber
of bills was introduced and
voted upon. A complete collec-tion
of all legislation will soon
be available in the Senate office.
Forthcoming Senate meetings
will also include discussions con-cerning
the ESC and its sponsor,
the AAES.
Can all the hours of work be
valuable to Bethel Students?
Dave Blake thinks so. "The busi-ness
which the delegates com-pleted
could be of benefit if the
respective colleges review the
minutes of the ESC. The AAES
has a lot of potential, and it pro-vides
an opportunity for evan-gelical
schools, in that it serves
as a voice, and a place to get off
Bethel's one square block."
"Probably the most benefi-cial
result of the Convention was
getting to know students from
other colleges, with similar frus-trations,"
adds Elden Elseth
"And ORU has a fantastic
health service, too. They just
heal people.
"If we begin construction of
the new campus soon, I hope
that we can have the AAES at
Bethel sometime."
Elden sums up the entire ex-perience
this way. "There's only
one word for ESC - heavy."

at the second annual AAES convention.
Phil Kitchen impresses Bethel students
Saturday, April 17, Bethel
students were priviledged to
hear a "superb concert" as one
person expressed it, by blind
folk-singer Phil Kitchen. "If
you weren't there," said an im-pressed
listener, "it was your
loss."
Phil did numbers by Simon
and Garfunkel, Peter, Paul and
Mary, James Taylor and Judy
Collins. From the top 20 box
he sang "Man from Galilee."

Bethel debate team members
Dan Nelson, Allie Jo Moore,
Dave Peterson, Julie Palen, Carol
Shimmin and their coach, Marg
Erickson, left for a National
Speech Tournament in Houston,
Texas, March 22. That evening,
in Houston, Bethel was one of
the 15 schools that received
their Pi Kappa Delta Charter,
a must for the tournament.
The following day began the
team's busy week, with days
beginning at 5 a.m. and often
until midnight. Bethel's team
received two Excellent awards
in Extempt speaking from Dan
Nelson and Allie Jo Moore.
There were 162 people in this
competition, placing Bethel in
the top one-third.
The tournament took place
at the University of Houston,
with over 900 delegates from
more than 168 schools. Though
"Phil is one of the finest
singers I've heard," said Ron
Troxel who especially enjoyed
Phil's rendition of Arlo Guth-rie's
"Alice's Restaurant."
Learning the lyrics for "Al-ice's
Restaurant" is an accom-plishment
for anyone, but for
Phil it was even greater as he
memorized the entire 2 0 -minute
song from 17 pages of Braille.
Phil has been totally blind
since birth, but as one person
many teams were larger than the
one representing Bethel, our
team also received an Excellent
award in the over-all Sweep-stakes.
The days were long and hard
said the team, but they were
not without a few side-trips.
They were able to get half a day
off and drove to Galveston for
a day in the sun. Just outside
Houston is the Nasa Space Cen-ter,
and the team was also able
to tour the Center one after-noon.
Flying back with more than
40 other students from our Prov-ince
the following Saturday,
Bethel couldn't help but feel
proud. Coach Erickson said, "I
really am proud of our kids.
They took part in a National
competition with some really
sharp debators. Yet they held
their own to capture an Ex-cellent
in Sweepstakes."
Not only did the team make
observed, "he doesn't let a little
thing like being blind keep him
from being one of the most ac-tive
people around."
Phil is a graduate of St. Louis
Park High School and is now
attending a junior college. He is
very active in church, which he
confessed at the concert is Meth-odist.
In his spare time Phil keeps
busy with his 12-string Marten
guitar. He said that he learns his
their coach proud, but they were
also proud of their coach when
she was elected Secretary for the
Upper Mississippi Province of
the Pi Kappa Delta.
"For those Bethel students
who envy the trip the team just
made," said one member, "re-member
the long hours and all
the work involved." Yet each
one of the team thought it was
worth it.

music, with the exception of
numbers such as "Alice's Res-taurant,"
from tapes and records.
Phil doesn't let his blindness
stop him from doing anything he
really wants to. Just ask him a-about
his motorcycle equipped
with two white canes. Hopefully
he's joking.
"Right now," says Phil, "it
would be as much of a shock for
me to regain my sight as it would
be for one of you to lose yours."
On Phil's coat is a little ring
button given to him by Paul
Stookey of Peter, Paul and Mary.
Phil attended a concert of Paul's
and ended up singing with him.
The button reads "Jesus Christ
is the bridge over troubled wa-ters,"
and according to Phil, this
pretty well sums up his feelings.
Whatever he does or wherever
he goes, he says, "it's with and
through Christ."

Bethel has witnessed a mira-cle.
It was only three months
ago, when the Board of Regents
met for the final 1970 session,
that they concluded campus relo-cation
could not materialize in
the near future because of an in-sufficient
finanacial base. Prayer
has brought us to where we now
stand, with a $2 million loan and

From die Pesident's desk
Requests student
prayer support
What an exciting spiritual experience the recent building decision of the
Board of Regents has been to all of us. The action was even more radical than
the faculty resolution drawn up at its retreat last fall. At that time our teach-ers
recommended that the Board sell the old campus immediately and then
move to the new one. Six months and many studies later, the Board inverted
this by voting unanimously to begin construction of the new campus immedi-ately
and then sell the old one!
And then the 13 regents went home! We won't see most of them until
next June. By June the new buildings must be under construction. Those of
us who are administrators of Board decisions must see to it that the proposed
redesign in the feasibility study is finalized, that consensus on the plan is
reached by those who are to occupy the spaces, that millions of dollars in loan
funds are secured to pay the builders, that gifts large and small are found to
pay off the loans, that proper legal documents are prepared and signed, that
accurate information is distributed to all the friends of Bethel, especially those
who are unduly pessimistic about the future of private higher education, and
that priorities are kept in balance so first consideration will continue to be
given to student needs, the new curriculum and a strong educational program
to be housed within the new buildings.
All of this is too much for me. And for my colleagues. Humanly speak-ing,
the time and resources immediately available to us are not adequate.
Hence we are thrown upon the Lord in a decisive way. Not upon regents. Or
foundations. Or agents of wealth. Or architects. Or builders. The Lord will use
all of these to be sure. But our reliance is upon Him directly. Only a relocation
plan and timetable that are His first of all will be achieved.
It was D.L. Moody who once declared, "If God is in your plans, make
those plans big!" Well, we have big plans. And we have a big God. How glad I
am that my God is all mighty. He is the God who made Moses' Red Sea dry
up, Joshua's sun stand still, Elijah's dead boy come alive, Daniel's furnace be-come
powerless, and praise God, Bethel's campus move to Arden Hills
The New Testament promise is "according to your faith so be it." And
the Old Testament challenge is, "Call upon me and I will show you great and
mighty things which thou knowest not." I would like to encourage everyone
on the campus to pray so intensely for Beth-el "the house of God" that the
building that emerges on the shore of Lake Valentine will become "the house
that prayer built." This is how the Reader's Digest once described the amazing
Klingberg Children's Home; and this can be repeated. We can all build the new
campus as the place of prayer.
As we face the thrilling opportunity of seeing our omnipotent God at
work during these next 16 months, I pledge myself as your president to be
more a man of prayer than I ever have been before. And by God's grace, I
hope to live so close to Him that I can be sensitive to His nudging and respon-sive
to His direction. Won't you please pray for me also as you pray for
Bethel?

Prayer continues, and is great-ly
needed if we are to have the
faith God requires to see this
project through. Each Tues-day
and Friday at 12 :30 in the
seminary chapel, concerned ad-ministrators,
faculty, and stu-dents
join in seeking guidance
and ever strengthening trust in
many particular matters.
Developments in relocation
plans and prayer needs are
shared, giving us opportunity to
seek specific answers and doors
to open. We pray that God
would take hold of Bethel and
the new campus for His use.
Business representatives for
Bethel continue seeking substan-tial
sums of money in grants for
construction, while still on our
minds is the need for sufficient
funds to operate our present
campus in the black. A buyer is
needed for this campus. Mission:
Share shows signs of giving more
than the anticipated $1.5 million
to Bethel. All are items for
prayer and praise.
Some of us might feel too
much emphasis is being placed or
the mortar and concrete aspect
of Bethel. But in talking with
God, I see that administrators
and faculty also realize the need
for God to lead the right stu-dents
to Bethel and provide for
their financial resources in light
of rising tuition.
I am especially thankful for
Dr. Carl Lundquist who has es-tablished
and maintains profes-sional
contacts with corporation
heads and yet is deeply aware of
the needs students face in their
spiritual lives. He especially
needs and deserves our prayers,
as he is a witness of Christ's love
in both executive and faculty
and student relationships.
The opportunity is here for
each of us to use the power of
prayer. Take, advantage of the ti-ny
prayer cells in your dormito-ry,
the share/prayer meetings in
history house each Monday night
at 9 :3 0 , and the meetings each
Tuesday and Friday.
And in the quietness of your
special talks with God, open up
and love through concern for
your brothers and sisters as we
share an "adventure in faith" for
a new Bethel to serve in new
ways.

Dear God,
The words "Thank You" seem so inadequate in ex-pressing
our gratitude for the trip to California. We
appreciate all the things you did for us. For example,
just to list a few of the incidents:
Thanks for the transportation You provided with the
speech van, truck and camper, even if all the generator
bolts gave way, the fan belt broke, the universal joint
went on strike, and that tire demanded attention. The
time that was spent repairing them gave us more oppor-tunity
to fellowship with each other and above all,
taught us patience!
Thanks too, that our week's itinerary never material-ized.
It was difficult to arrive in Hollywood after travel-ing
2000 miles, to find that the connections hadn't been
assured and we didn't know where to go next or where
we were to perform. Just another lesson to teach us that
we must depend on You for all our needs.
Thanks for our two performances on the west coast.
What would we have done if we wouldn't have had them
or the two practices? Sure, we expected to do lots more,
but thanks for giving us more leisurely vacation. Thanks
for the time You gave the fifteen of us to learn together,
and to love You and each other more than we did when
we left Minnesota April 2.
Thanks for the audiences which saw "The Hound of
Everyman" and for those we were able to share with.
Of course, it was hard to share anything with the first
group as 90% were 6 years old or younger. They were a
good practice assembly if nothing else and only You
know who or how many of the older 10% were touched

New records, equipment and
speakers in both the cafeteria
and coffee shop, along with new
and exciting programming is all
a part of the "new" WBCS radio
station which began broadcast-ing
the Monday before Easter.
Operating on a new format,
WBCS has been funded by the
speech department since the be-ginning
of second semester.
Speech professor Dale Rott
found that the station could be
an effective tool for his radio
class, the result being more con-cern
for the life and death of
WBCS.
With their funds, Ron Troxel,
Rich Zaderaka and Mark Kings-beck
began rebuilding and re-placing
much badly needed
equipment. Mark Kingsbeck, for-mer
station manager spent
many long hours on all the
wiring for the station, thus mak-ing
WBCS improvements pos-sible.
WBCS begins their broadcast-ing
day at 6 :30 each weekday
morning with the Ron Lewis
show. Following this from 7 :4 5 -
8 :35 a.m. is a program of Chris-tian
music and a devotional by
Dale Rott.
The Liz Richards show, at
11 :3 0 -12 :3 0 daily features Betty
Eckstrom. Liz is followed by
Jerry King and "Prospective III"
with D.J. Mark Kingsbeck.
Throughout the remainder of
the day until 7 :00 p.m. the
station broadcasts alternated
shows from WAYL and KEEY.
Rich Zaderaka is on every
night from 7 :00-8 :00 with the
Chuck Williams Show. Other
"notorious" Bethel D.J.'s follow
each weekday evening broadcast-ing
until 11 :00 p.m. Included
are Monday's "Super Session"

Ron Troxel is station man-ager
for WBCS, and feels that
the new format and develop-ments
are very encouraging.
When asked about the pur-pose
for WBCS, Ron said that
the radio station was initiated
to serve the Bethel community
as well as helping those inter-ested
in radio broadcasting. "We
have been trying to find ways to
unify the campus and keep up
spirit through such things as
broadcasting away basketball
games."
"But," he added, "we can't
serve Bethel unless people lis-ten."
Ron said that the station
plays mainly rock music, "New
songs and good music that the
students say they want."
There is room for a couple
more D.J.'s reports WBCS. If
interested, stop by the radio
station and talk to Ron. WBCS is
located in the basement of the
administration building across
from the student senate office.

Mrs. Chisholm is the first
Black Congresswoman in the
United States, and has firmly
established herself as the "Fight-ing
Shirley Chisholm."
She was elected to the 91st
Congress from New York's 12th
Congressional District, an area
centered in Brooklyn's impover-ished
Bedford-Stuyvesant area
where 92 percent of her elector-ate
are Blacks and Puerto Ricans.

Theater Production II class. Per-formances
are scheduled for May
5, 6, 7 and 8 in room 106
"As far as I'm concerned,"
says director Terrell, "the play is
an American classic."
Set in the 1930s, the play fo-cuses
on a family who together
with some of their associates

of conforming to its capitalistic
dictates such as the materialistic

ture will introduce the Putnam
Lectureship in Social Ethics.
The endowed lectureship was es-tablished
by Dr. Irving E. Put-nam
in 1970 at Hamline in
memory of his wife.
The Lectureship is dedicated
to the Putnam's conviction that
"Being one's brother's keeper is
a relevant, vital principle for hu-man
progress, peace, and happi-ness
in every generation and is
basic for creative individual
lives.
"Thus, scholars and societal
leaders will be invited to chal-lenge
the Hamline community
with forthright analysis of ques-tions
involving social ethics."
Free to have fun, how do
some of the characters find it?

Essie (Sandi Hallquist) takes

to her Russian tutor (Lynn Han-son),
after eight years she still

The members of the Theater
Production class have been work-ing
on the play with varying in-tensity
for most of second se-mester,
and are handling all as-pects
of its production.
"It's a fun play," says Bren-da
Barth. "Fun to work on, to
present, and fun because of the
cast."
Slight changes in taste and
some up-dating have been done
for the May presentation. But,
as Terrell says, "It's still just as
silly now as it was in the thirties
to climb on top of the materialis-tic
pile. After all, you can't take
it with you."

Players pray with gratitude
by the message presented.
We also thank You for the everyday needs You sup-plied,
and for Bob Yerkes, the man who opened his home
to us. In that unique setting in San Fernando Valley with
the grapefruit trees, swimming pool, trampolene, and
trapeze set, we had a great experience meeting all those
circus people practicing and training with our host.
Though all the guys have colds from camping in the
cold evening temperatures, the girls thank You for their
sleeping quarters in the camper. Thanks, too, for the food
we could prepare with the camper facilities. Despite a few
bologna sandwiches and some prune sauce, everything was
greatly appreciated.
We couldn't end without including our gratitude for
the beautiful sunshine, the sightseeing we did in Holly-wood,
Sunset Strip, beautiful downtown Burbank, Pas-cedena,
Balboa, and Huntington Beach (where we could-n't
get that permit to do the play).
Meeting some of the "Jesus freaks" from the Jesus
People Church and Training Center was the shot in the
arm we needed. Thanks, too, for the unity we exper-ienced.
Thanks, most of all, God, for traveling with us to and
from California and for staying with us the four days we
were there. We learned that we have to take You with us
wherever we go. You're the most important and nec-essary
part of Lambs Players. Thanks again for everything.

The Not Corner
Team back
with trophy
by Wendell Wahlin
The Bethel baseball team re-turned
from a successful training
episode in Florida with a second
place trophy and a 2-1 record
after participating in the Boca
Raton Invitational Tournament
during Easter vacation.
The Royals defeated Barring-ton
College, Rhode Island, Hol-ton
College, New York, and lost
to olivet ' Nazarene, Illinois.
Teams from all four schools
stayed in Bible Town, a winter
Christian Conference Center lo-cated
just outside Boca Raton.
The schedule of activities for
the 14- team members and Coach
Trager included morning prac-tices
Monday through -Wednes-day
with afternoons off for
"lots of free time to soak up
those golden-rays!" Thursday
through Saturday. The Royals
played in the competition tour-ney
games.
Coach Trager said that the
three purposes for going to Flor-ida
were realized; "the outside
practice and early competition
were accomplished, squad unity
was greatly advanced, and spirit-by
Mark Anderson
Bethel's track team, com-monly
and affectionately known
as the "Crazy Eights," vacation-ed
in Missouri and Arkansas dur-ing
Easter break.
A meet the first day on the
road at Wartburg College in
Iowa proved to be disastrous
complicated by 35 0 tempera-tures
and three inches of mud
on the track. However, the team
ran well in the three remaining
meets.
Due to a lack of personnel,
the team had to forfeit many
field events as well as a running
event in each meet. The result
was a 50-5 deficit by the time
the running event' occured.
The best performance as a
whole was against Southwest
Baptist College. Against School
of the Ozarks, the team pract-ically
matched them point for
point in the events they compet-ed
in.
Opposing a well-balanced
John Brown University squad in
the last meet, with the track
men plagued by shin-splints,
sore muscles, and travel fatigue,
did not perform as well as in the
previous meets.
Some of the more outstand-ing
performances included Phil
James' winning ways in the
quarter (three for four) and, as
one team member adds, "his un-canny
ability to keep the
car keys from Coach Gladder."
Rick Berggen ran five half-miles
in both the Southwest
Baptist and the School of the
Ozarks meets. He also found the
golden Easter Egg at John
Brown University's Easter egg
hunt.
Dave Asp ran his lifetime best
in the 100 yard dash and per-formed
well in all 18 events he
competed in, in the four meets.
Gary Hipp consistently won
both the high and intermediate
hurtles in spite of the tapeworm
which kept sapping his energy.
Mark Anderson won the mile
at Southwest Baptist, despite the
Coach's warning that he was be-coming
a "dough boy on stills."
Bob Berggren's week was
highlighted by his 220 yard vic-tory
against School of the Ozarks
which was inspired by the "shot-putter."
ual growth among the players
was evidenced."
"And the team," Coach Tra-ger
judged, "performed admira-bly
in all respects:"
The first game pitted Bethel
against Barrington College, the
Royals stopping them 6-2. Bob
Brodin went the distance giving
up two runs on two hits and
five walks with nine strike-outs.
Barrington scored one run in
the first inning without a hit,
aided by two walks and a pair of
Royal errors. Bethel tied the
game in the third on Brodin's
walk, a stolen base by courtesy
runner Steve Shodin and a single
by Dave Pearson.
Bethel's big inning came in
the fifth when two runs were
scored on five hits, the big one
being Steve Hanson's double.
The Royals plated five runs in
this inning, starting with Dave
Pearson's reaching on an error.
Steve Wilson drew a walk, fol-lowed
by Steve Hanson's single
to right to score Pearson. Gary
Clark reached on another error,
Denny Zaderaka forced another
error, and Jack Auffant closed
Phil McLain ran a fine quarter
at John Brown. Every morning,
however, found Phil drooling
over his idol the "Cookie Mon-ster"
on Seasame Street.
Rick Casteel twice threw the
javelin over 150 feet and exhibit-ed
great courage both on and off
the field.
Coach Reynolds was with the
team the first half of the week
and helped especially with his
strategy at the Southwest Bap-tist
meet. However, Coach
Reynold's strategy did not help
him in trying to get out of a
bathroom at the Southwest Bap-tist
men's dorm commented the
team.
Coach Glader led the team
According to Coach Leon
Narvaez, the Bethel tennis team
has been working hard on vari-ous
local courts and expects to
surpass their former 7-5 record
this year.
Returning Royal players are
Kim Gustafson, Gary Ask, Steve
Bloom, Dave Selvig and Steve
Lee. Two new players, Jim Nel-son
and Pete Calhoon, have also
been added.
In a match at Concordia last
Tuesday, Bethel "whomped
them in both singles and , dou-bles,"
commented one fan.
Scoring in doubles was:
Gustaf on-Nelson 6-1 , 6-1
Ask-Bloom 6-1 , 6 -1
Lee-Selvig 6-2 , 6-1
Scoring in singles was just as
high with:
Gary Ask 4-6, 6-1 , 6 -3
Steve Bloom 6-0 , 6 -4
Pete Calhoon 6-1, 6-1
Kim Gustafson 6-1 , 6 -1
Jim Nelson 6-2 , 6-1
Dave Selvig 6-0, 6-0
In other matches this season
the team won on a forfeit by
Augsburg and were defeated by
Hamline 5-3.
Right now the team says
their biggest problem is their
small size, adding that any men
interested in joining them should
contact Leon Narvaez immedi-ately.
the scoring with a solid base hit.
Friday, Bethel faced the tour-ney
champion, a strong, well-bal-anced
team from Olivet
Nazarene College. Lowell Rich-ardson
went the distance in this
game, walking only one and
scattering nine hits. He gave up
five runs by striking out 14.
for the last half of the week. He
sacrificially let the team use
both of his cars for the trip and
was content with riding "shot-gun"
most of the time.
The outlook for the remain-der
of the season is quite bright.
Each of the "Crazy Eight" is
strong in his respective events.
However, the team does lack
desired depth and will have pro-blems
winning meets.
Many meets will be held in
the vicinity of Bethel. And if
one team member's parents
could travel all the way from St.
Paul to Arkansas to watch a
meet, Bethel students should be
able to support the team when
it runs near Bethel.
The next two tennis matches
will be home meets versus Be-midji
State Monday, April 26 at
3 :00 and Pillsbury College Wed-nesday
April 26 at 3 :00.
Dave Selvig returns a serve in
a doubles match against Con-cordia.
As a team, Bethel picked up
two runs on five hits and four
errors. Gary Clark's double in
the fourth proved to be Bethel's
big hit as the Royal's proceeded
to bring home two runs on
three hits.
Coach Trager said that the
team had its best offensive day
with eight runs on 14 hits in the
game against Holton College Sat-urday.
The big hits in the final
game were the two doubles by
Steve Hanson and Steve Wilson,
and a triple by Jim Feldman.
The big inning came in the sixth
with four runs crossing the plate.

Denny Zaderaka's bases-loaded

Reflecting back on the trip,
Coach Trager said, "It was very
worthwhile. We realized our ob-jectives
and we won a couple
ballgames. We didn't have any
serious problems in travel or
amongst team members.
"Everyone had an outstand-ing
attitude. Now we are looking

great start."

The major league baseball season is in full swing and there
have already been some surprising happenings. Looking into my
crystal baseball, here's how the pennant races should shape up:
National League East National League West
American League East American League West
During the Florida baseball trip, Denny Zaderaka picked up
the nickname "sheik." This prompted a teammate to remark, "If
Denny was on third base and scored on a sacrifice fly -- wouldn't
that be called Bringing in the Sheik?"
The fan mail has been pouring in so I'll take this opportunity
to answer two letters I received.
From Anonymous: Had quite a laugh when 2nd Old got
beat by 20 points after you picked them as intramural
Champs. You sports editors mess up everything and you
all do it exactly alike.
Comment: Listen sausage brain - either get glasses or
have someone read the Hot Corner to you.
From Baltimore Orioles Fan: Do you really think De-troit
can win the pennant without Denny McLain?
Their pitching staff is nothing without him.
Comment: Didn't they win in 1945 when McLain was
one year old?
In the Boca Raton tournaments, Bethel left fielder Tim Eddy
attracted the favor of a big black bird that would periodically swoop
down at him. This seemingly indicates that Tim could be classified as
a Crow-Magnet man.

Board votes campus move 00
by Dave Greener
The "light" changed to
"green" and as many believed,
God Himself seemed to say
"Go." After a decade of dream-ing,
planning and praying, the
.road to college relocation was
opened by a recent Board of
Regents' decision to move Beth-el
to Arden Hills by the fall of
1972
For the first time, action is
imminent.
"The plan," as President
Lundquist briefly introduced it
to applauding students in Tues-day's
chapel, "is to proceed im-mediately
with the construction
of the new college campus."
As recently as January, im-mediate
relocation prospects
were dismal. The economic pic-ture
was clouded with inflation
and lacked adequate funds. As
Regents board member Burt
Wessman summed it, "Things
looked 2retty bleak."
But in February, more prom-ising
events took place. Perhaps
most importantly, Arthur Hage,
head of a construction company
and a Bethel alumnus with an
interest in the new campus (he
also helped build the Seminary
Apartments), sought to combine
with a national architectural
company (Ellerbe Architects ),
and offered Bethel a modified
and lower costing college pro-posal.
This met preliminary ac-ceptance
by Bethel's Building
Committee and the resulting de-tails
included not only a lower
cost through the redesigns, but
a guaranteed cost as well.
Hage-Ellerbe presented their
findings before the Regents on
April 2. Some members had
been aware of these new hopes,
others didn't realize the meeting
by Nancy Classen
Bethel College Choir com-pletes
an exciting tour of the
Pacific Northwest this week, ar-riving
Wednesday by bus. On the
trip across-country to Seattle,
where their first concerts were
held, the choir traveled through
such scenic spots as Mt. Rainier
National Park, Washington.
Daily concerts, sometimes twice
might be a turning point. But
all thirteen voted to accept the
proposal and proceed with con-struction.
And as Wessman re-lates,
"The atmosphere in the
meeting was such that His will
was evident."
After preliminary arrange-ments
and site development, Ar-den's
Hills will reverberate to the
sounds of construction begin-ning
June 28, when the annual
General Conference meeting is
held in St. Paul. The new design
includes five major building
units: a classroom unit, a lec-ture-
recital hall, a library-food
service center, a gym, and an
administrative-student services
building. The cost is guaranteed
daily, carried the choir north
into Canada, where they sang
at the Vancouver Bible Institute,
and returned them to the Port-land
area for Easter weekend.
On Sundays the choir members
were free to travel in small
groups.
At their homecoming con-certs,
April 23-24 at 8 :00 p.m.
the choir will offer the high-caliber
music their tour
at $6 ,271 ,500 ; more than $2
million less than the original
cost savings may be possible
as well. All buildings will be
air-conditioned and they are de-signed
for 1200 students,
with room for up to 400 more.
While the complex will be 20
percent smaller than the first
plan, the new design represents
a loss of but "15,000 less square
feet for actual teaching purpos-es."
The new Bethel will be built
under a "fast track" program
that facilitates rapid construc-tion.
One advantage of the new
proposal is that it is readily
adaptable to "phasing" in the
event that funds are inadequate.
audiences enjoyed to the Bethel
community. Dr. Berglund says
the "Three Spirituals" by
Heinz Werner Zimmerman will
be sung as "premier of the
work." The spirituals, composed
by an acclaimed European choral
musician, were dedicated to the
memory of Martin Luther King.
Jr. Other numbers may preview
next year's European tour: the
Swedish "I am the Bread of
Life" by Sven-Erick-Bock and
the German "Die Mit Tranen
Saen" by Hermann Schein.
"Song of Galilee" by Julius
Chayes and "B'shuv Adonai" by
Havley Ades, both in Hebrew,
are two more contemporary ar-rangements.
Cost of the concert is just
$1 .00-2 .00 for non-students.
Tickets may be purchased at the
Music Office.
Paul Ohlin has accepted the
job of project administrator for
the new college. Ohlin, a Con-ference
Baptist, has been asso-ciated
with a well-known eastern
company (the Fuller Company)
and his credentials inelude being
the project manager when the
Metropolitan Opera House was
built in New York City. He
leaves a project in Florida to
come to work for Bethel.
Now that the first step has
been taken, as President Lund-quist
says, "We will trust that
God will lead the rest of the
way."
As board member Arnold
Wicklund comments, "There is
going to be a lot of building by
faith right at this time."
To help nurture faith great
enough to move a college, pray-er
groups are being organized
(For example, the Seminary
on Tuesdays, 12 :30 - 12 :50
for the rest of the school year).
Paul Wesslund views the
new college as "a great spiritual
venture rather than just a build-ing
program." And President
Lundquist, recognizing that suc-cess
"rests in _great measure on
the Holy Spirit," hopes that the
new Beth-el will be "the House
of God that prayer built."

Four people becoming one in the Holy Spirit
on the way to and from Daytona Beach. Personal
spiritual growth, a vital part of this year's trek to
Florida. Beach evangelism, sure -- and the birth of
many new children of God.
But that's not the whole story. God teaching us
so many exciting lessons during those nine days...
"Let's sing!"
And we did. Singing every song we knew, and
lots we didn't. Singing through the alphabet again
and again. Learning new songs - "but what do
those words mean?"
Singing about our "Dear Jesus" in the gas sta-tion.
"Do you love Him, too?"
"My Lord knows the way through the wilder-ness."
Taking the most beautiful detour imaginable.
And braaaking on the long, steep incline.
"Are you sure we're going east?"
"Blessed assurance..."
A blow-out. Standing around freezing, enjoying
every minute of it.
"Thankyou, Lord."
Sharing with the maid, the saleslady, the kids
on the beach. And with one another. Growing to-gether
in His love.
Trusting you. Letting you know me. Touching
your soul.
Feeling a great burden for Doug, and praising
God for another answered prayer. Growing in
faith. Seeing God work again and again.
Riding a wave. Diving into another one.
Getting five dollars for a used hospital armband.
Taking off - again.
"I have no idea where we are."
Praying with the lady in the restroom. Rejoic-ing
in newfound dependence upon the Holy Spirit.
Drawing a circle of love that includes everyone.
Discovering how open people are to God's love
and plan. And to the Bridge over the chasm sepa-rating
God and man.
"And can it be?"
Driving and riding. Riding and driving.
Making another oil change.
A cracked U-joint in the drive shaft. Singing
to Him. Praying. "`Tis Grace has brought us safe
thus far, and Grace will lead us home." Lacking
time and money. Watching God take care of both.
Sharing and praying together.
"Are you sure you know the Way?"
"Yes. I have decided to follow Jesus."

Students react to AAES
Campus leaders
confront issues
Oral Roberts University campus, in Tulsa Oklahoma, was the scene of the
second annual AAES convention.
by Joey Healy
The American Association of
Evangelical Students ( AAES )
held its second annual conven-tion
at Oral Roberts University,
Tulsa, Oklahoma, March 24-28.
Bethel sent seven delegates this
year, including Elden Elieth,
Bob Miko, Harold Hogan, Dave
Blake, Joey Healy, Thomas M.
Billigmeier, and Joel Goff. Dean
Muck also attended as advisor.
"Confronting the Issues" was
the central theme, and there
were varied feelings concerning
the fulfillment of this goal. A
substantial amount of time
spent in AAES business meet-ings
and Evangelical Student
Congress did take valuable time
which might have been spent in
committee meetings and sem-inars.
Kenneth Oman, the 1970 -71
President of the AAES summar-ized
the purposes of the Associa-
Kenneth Oman, former
bills that were voted upon
tion, in his introductory report.
These quests were commitment
to Christian higher education,
responsibility to develop creat-ive
student leadership, oppor-tunity
to develop social aware-ness,
and function as a national
voice of evangelical youth.
Two major seminars were
held, both directly involved
with the purposes of the
AAES: "Student Leadership at
a Christian College," and
"Christianity and Contemporary
Culture." Several social events
were on the agenda, as well.
A reception was held at Presi-dent
Oral Robert's mansion, the
World Action Singers performed
drama production "Taming of
the Shrew" was presented, and a
special mixer featured the ORU
jazz band.
Vice-President Thomas M.
Billigmeier's initial comments
might well be understood, in the
light of all this. "I enjoyed the
whole time, especially because
it was my first convention, and
it became a learning experience.
I felt, though, that we tried to
do too much in the little time
we had. We were, in effect, rail-roading
the bills through in the
last session, which is too bad be-cause
these will be published
and the ESC will be judged
based upon the resolutions
which were passed and defeated.
"I felt pressured and unsure
of some of my votes because
there was virtually no time for
deliberation on the bill at hand.
Some of the bills had good resol-utions
but weak or questionable
rationale, and vice-versa.
"I feel that it is good, though,
for us as evangelical colleges to
get together and make definite
stands on issues which would
hopefully reflect those of the
greater evangelical world, as
well."
President Joel Goff's first re-action
was "one of awe as I have
never before met so many kids
who are aware of what is going
on around the Christian cam-puses
of our country. I secretly
wished they were all in my Sen-ate
at Bethel.
"I was very impressed by the
serious attitude most of them
had in regards to the conven-tion.
They had come to get
something done. As far as the
AAES is concerned, I am very
optimistic as to what it can do if
it moves in certain directions.
I rejoiced when we moved along
Scriptural lines in our legisla-tion;
I feel that this is what our
main purpose should be if we
are to accomplish anything.
"Many students mentioned
that they lacked student power.
I feel that the only way this can
be obtained is to act as mature
Christians. The major legislation
I was interested in was from the
committee on education. I was
really excited to hear N.E. Re-gional
Chairman Dan Riggall's
speech. I agree with him, that
our concern should not be re-lating
Christianity to a particu-lar
discipline but rather formu-lating
and developing disciplines
which are based on the Christian
presuppositions. Talking with
him and others gave me some
real ideas on this whole princi-ple.
Five committees were f
ed: Campus Governance, Christ-ian
Witness, Domestic Concerns,
Foreign Affairs, and Education-al
Direction. After individual
committees met, they were sub-divided
into smaller groups
which worked on a position pa-per,
resolution or mandate to
be brought back to the larg-er
committee. After the piece of
legislation was passed by the
committee, it could be brought
up during the legislative session
of the Congress.
In this manner, a large num-ber
of bills was introduced and
voted upon. A complete collec-tion
of all legislation will soon
be available in the Senate office.
Forthcoming Senate meetings
will also include discussions con-cerning
the ESC and its sponsor,
the AAES.
Can all the hours of work be
valuable to Bethel Students?
Dave Blake thinks so. "The busi-ness
which the delegates com-pleted
could be of benefit if the
respective colleges review the
minutes of the ESC. The AAES
has a lot of potential, and it pro-vides
an opportunity for evan-gelical
schools, in that it serves
as a voice, and a place to get off
Bethel's one square block."
"Probably the most benefi-cial
result of the Convention was
getting to know students from
other colleges, with similar frus-trations,"
adds Elden Elseth
"And ORU has a fantastic
health service, too. They just
heal people.
"If we begin construction of
the new campus soon, I hope
that we can have the AAES at
Bethel sometime."
Elden sums up the entire ex-perience
this way. "There's only
one word for ESC - heavy."
AAES president, directs discussion of one of the numerous
at the second annual AAES convention.
Phil Kitchen impresses Bethel students
Saturday, April 17, Bethel
students were priviledged to
hear a "superb concert" as one
person expressed it, by blind
folk-singer Phil Kitchen. "If
you weren't there," said an im-pressed
listener, "it was your
loss."
Phil did numbers by Simon
and Garfunkel, Peter, Paul and
Mary, James Taylor and Judy
Collins. From the top 20 box
he sang "Man from Galilee."

Bethel debate team members
Dan Nelson, Allie Jo Moore,
Dave Peterson, Julie Palen, Carol
Shimmin and their coach, Marg
Erickson, left for a National
Speech Tournament in Houston,
Texas, March 22. That evening,
in Houston, Bethel was one of
the 15 schools that received
their Pi Kappa Delta Charter,
a must for the tournament.
The following day began the
team's busy week, with days
beginning at 5 a.m. and often
until midnight. Bethel's team
received two Excellent awards
in Extempt speaking from Dan
Nelson and Allie Jo Moore.
There were 162 people in this
competition, placing Bethel in
the top one-third.
The tournament took place
at the University of Houston,
with over 900 delegates from
more than 168 schools. Though
"Phil is one of the finest
singers I've heard," said Ron
Troxel who especially enjoyed
Phil's rendition of Arlo Guth-rie's
"Alice's Restaurant."
Learning the lyrics for "Al-ice's
Restaurant" is an accom-plishment
for anyone, but for
Phil it was even greater as he
memorized the entire 2 0 -minute
song from 17 pages of Braille.
Phil has been totally blind
since birth, but as one person
many teams were larger than the
one representing Bethel, our
team also received an Excellent
award in the over-all Sweep-stakes.
The days were long and hard
said the team, but they were
not without a few side-trips.
They were able to get half a day
off and drove to Galveston for
a day in the sun. Just outside
Houston is the Nasa Space Cen-ter,
and the team was also able
to tour the Center one after-noon.
Flying back with more than
40 other students from our Prov-ince
the following Saturday,
Bethel couldn't help but feel
proud. Coach Erickson said, "I
really am proud of our kids.
They took part in a National
competition with some really
sharp debators. Yet they held
their own to capture an Ex-cellent
in Sweepstakes."
Not only did the team make
observed, "he doesn't let a little
thing like being blind keep him
from being one of the most ac-tive
people around."
Phil is a graduate of St. Louis
Park High School and is now
attending a junior college. He is
very active in church, which he
confessed at the concert is Meth-odist.
In his spare time Phil keeps
busy with his 12-string Marten
guitar. He said that he learns his
their coach proud, but they were
also proud of their coach when
she was elected Secretary for the
Upper Mississippi Province of
the Pi Kappa Delta.
"For those Bethel students
who envy the trip the team just
made," said one member, "re-member
the long hours and all
the work involved." Yet each
one of the team thought it was
worth it.

music, with the exception of
numbers such as "Alice's Res-taurant,"
from tapes and records.
Phil doesn't let his blindness
stop him from doing anything he
really wants to. Just ask him a-about
his motorcycle equipped
with two white canes. Hopefully
he's joking.
"Right now," says Phil, "it
would be as much of a shock for
me to regain my sight as it would
be for one of you to lose yours."
On Phil's coat is a little ring
button given to him by Paul
Stookey of Peter, Paul and Mary.
Phil attended a concert of Paul's
and ended up singing with him.
The button reads "Jesus Christ
is the bridge over troubled wa-ters,"
and according to Phil, this
pretty well sums up his feelings.
Whatever he does or wherever
he goes, he says, "it's with and
through Christ."

by Peter Varros
Bethel has witnessed a mira-cle.
It was only three months
ago, when the Board of Regents
met for the final 1970 session,
that they concluded campus relo-cation
could not materialize in
the near future because of an in-sufficient
finanacial base. Prayer
has brought us to where we now
stand, with a $2 million loan and
praising God!

From die Pesident's desk
Requests student
prayer support
What an exciting spiritual experience the recent building decision of the
Board of Regents has been to all of us. The action was even more radical than
the faculty resolution drawn up at its retreat last fall. At that time our teach-ers
recommended that the Board sell the old campus immediately and then
move to the new one. Six months and many studies later, the Board inverted
this by voting unanimously to begin construction of the new campus immedi-ately
and then sell the old one!
And then the 13 regents went home! We won't see most of them until
next June. By June the new buildings must be under construction. Those of
us who are administrators of Board decisions must see to it that the proposed
redesign in the feasibility study is finalized, that consensus on the plan is
reached by those who are to occupy the spaces, that millions of dollars in loan
funds are secured to pay the builders, that gifts large and small are found to
pay off the loans, that proper legal documents are prepared and signed, that
accurate information is distributed to all the friends of Bethel, especially those
who are unduly pessimistic about the future of private higher education, and
that priorities are kept in balance so first consideration will continue to be
given to student needs, the new curriculum and a strong educational program
to be housed within the new buildings.
All of this is too much for me. And for my colleagues. Humanly speak-ing,
the time and resources immediately available to us are not adequate.
Hence we are thrown upon the Lord in a decisive way. Not upon regents. Or
foundations. Or agents of wealth. Or architects. Or builders. The Lord will use
all of these to be sure. But our reliance is upon Him directly. Only a relocation
plan and timetable that are His first of all will be achieved.
It was D.L. Moody who once declared, "If God is in your plans, make
those plans big!" Well, we have big plans. And we have a big God. How glad I
am that my God is all mighty. He is the God who made Moses' Red Sea dry
up, Joshua's sun stand still, Elijah's dead boy come alive, Daniel's furnace be-come
powerless, and praise God, Bethel's campus move to Arden Hills
The New Testament promise is "according to your faith so be it." And
the Old Testament challenge is, "Call upon me and I will show you great and
mighty things which thou knowest not." I would like to encourage everyone
on the campus to pray so intensely for Beth-el "the house of God" that the
building that emerges on the shore of Lake Valentine will become "the house
that prayer built." This is how the Reader's Digest once described the amazing
Klingberg Children's Home; and this can be repeated. We can all build the new
campus as the place of prayer.
As we face the thrilling opportunity of seeing our omnipotent God at
work during these next 16 months, I pledge myself as your president to be
more a man of prayer than I ever have been before. And by God's grace, I
hope to live so close to Him that I can be sensitive to His nudging and respon-sive
to His direction. Won't you please pray for me also as you pray for
Bethel?

Prayer continues, and is great-ly
needed if we are to have the
faith God requires to see this
project through. Each Tues-day
and Friday at 12 :30 in the
seminary chapel, concerned ad-ministrators,
faculty, and stu-dents
join in seeking guidance
and ever strengthening trust in
many particular matters.
Developments in relocation
plans and prayer needs are
shared, giving us opportunity to
seek specific answers and doors
to open. We pray that God
would take hold of Bethel and
the new campus for His use.
Business representatives for
Bethel continue seeking substan-tial
sums of money in grants for
construction, while still on our
minds is the need for sufficient
funds to operate our present
campus in the black. A buyer is
needed for this campus. Mission:
Share shows signs of giving more
than the anticipated $1.5 million
to Bethel. All are items for
prayer and praise.
Some of us might feel too
much emphasis is being placed or
the mortar and concrete aspect
of Bethel. But in talking with
God, I see that administrators
and faculty also realize the need
for God to lead the right stu-dents
to Bethel and provide for
their financial resources in light
of rising tuition.
I am especially thankful for
Dr. Carl Lundquist who has es-tablished
and maintains profes-sional
contacts with corporation
heads and yet is deeply aware of
the needs students face in their
spiritual lives. He especially
needs and deserves our prayers,
as he is a witness of Christ's love
in both executive and faculty
and student relationships.
The opportunity is here for
each of us to use the power of
prayer. Take, advantage of the ti-ny
prayer cells in your dormito-ry,
the share/prayer meetings in
history house each Monday night
at 9 :3 0 , and the meetings each
Tuesday and Friday.
And in the quietness of your
special talks with God, open up
and love through concern for
your brothers and sisters as we
share an "adventure in faith" for
a new Bethel to serve in new
ways.

Dear God,
The words "Thank You" seem so inadequate in ex-pressing
our gratitude for the trip to California. We
appreciate all the things you did for us. For example,
just to list a few of the incidents:
Thanks for the transportation You provided with the
speech van, truck and camper, even if all the generator
bolts gave way, the fan belt broke, the universal joint
went on strike, and that tire demanded attention. The
time that was spent repairing them gave us more oppor-tunity
to fellowship with each other and above all,
taught us patience!
Thanks too, that our week's itinerary never material-ized.
It was difficult to arrive in Hollywood after travel-ing
2000 miles, to find that the connections hadn't been
assured and we didn't know where to go next or where
we were to perform. Just another lesson to teach us that
we must depend on You for all our needs.
Thanks for our two performances on the west coast.
What would we have done if we wouldn't have had them
or the two practices? Sure, we expected to do lots more,
but thanks for giving us more leisurely vacation. Thanks
for the time You gave the fifteen of us to learn together,
and to love You and each other more than we did when
we left Minnesota April 2.
Thanks for the audiences which saw "The Hound of
Everyman" and for those we were able to share with.
Of course, it was hard to share anything with the first
group as 90% were 6 years old or younger. They were a
good practice assembly if nothing else and only You
know who or how many of the older 10% were touched

New records, equipment and
speakers in both the cafeteria
and coffee shop, along with new
and exciting programming is all
a part of the "new" WBCS radio
station which began broadcast-ing
the Monday before Easter.
Operating on a new format,
WBCS has been funded by the
speech department since the be-ginning
of second semester.
Speech professor Dale Rott
found that the station could be
an effective tool for his radio
class, the result being more con-cern
for the life and death of
WBCS.
With their funds, Ron Troxel,
Rich Zaderaka and Mark Kings-beck
began rebuilding and re-placing
much badly needed
equipment. Mark Kingsbeck, for-mer
station manager spent
many long hours on all the
wiring for the station, thus mak-ing
WBCS improvements pos-sible.
WBCS begins their broadcast-ing
day at 6 :30 each weekday
morning with the Ron Lewis
show. Following this from 7 :4 5 -
8 :35 a.m. is a program of Chris-tian
music and a devotional by
Dale Rott.
The Liz Richards show, at
11 :3 0 -12 :3 0 daily features Betty
Eckstrom. Liz is followed by
Jerry King and "Prospective III"
with D.J. Mark Kingsbeck.
Throughout the remainder of
the day until 7 :00 p.m. the
station broadcasts alternated
shows from WAYL and KEEY.
Rich Zaderaka is on every
night from 7 :00-8 :00 with the
Chuck Williams Show. Other
"notorious" Bethel D.J.'s follow
each weekday evening broadcast-ing
until 11 :00 p.m. Included
are Monday's "Super Session"

Ron Troxel is station man-ager
for WBCS, and feels that
the new format and develop-ments
are very encouraging.
When asked about the pur-pose
for WBCS, Ron said that
the radio station was initiated
to serve the Bethel community
as well as helping those inter-ested
in radio broadcasting. "We
have been trying to find ways to
unify the campus and keep up
spirit through such things as
broadcasting away basketball
games."
"But," he added, "we can't
serve Bethel unless people lis-ten."
Ron said that the station
plays mainly rock music, "New
songs and good music that the
students say they want."
There is room for a couple
more D.J.'s reports WBCS. If
interested, stop by the radio
station and talk to Ron. WBCS is
located in the basement of the

Lectureship in Social Ethics.
The endowed lectureship was es-tablished

The Lectureship is dedicated

"Being one's brother's keeper is
a relevant, vital principle for hu-man
progress, peace, and happi-ness
in every generation and is
basic for creative individual
lives.
"Thus, scholars and societal

The members of the Theater

on the play with varying in-tensity
for most of second se-mester,

of its production.
"It's a fun play," says Bren-da

present, and fun because of the
cast."
Slight changes in taste and
some up-dating have been done
for the May presentation. But,
as Terrell says, "It's still just as
silly now as it was in the thirties
to climb on top of the materialis-tic

Players pray with gratitude
by the message presented.
We also thank You for the everyday needs You sup-plied,
and for Bob Yerkes, the man who opened his home
to us. In that unique setting in San Fernando Valley with
the grapefruit trees, swimming pool, trampolene, and
trapeze set, we had a great experience meeting all those
circus people practicing and training with our host.
Though all the guys have colds from camping in the
cold evening temperatures, the girls thank You for their
sleeping quarters in the camper. Thanks, too, for the food
we could prepare with the camper facilities. Despite a few
bologna sandwiches and some prune sauce, everything was
greatly appreciated.
We couldn't end without including our gratitude for
the beautiful sunshine, the sightseeing we did in Holly-wood,
Sunset Strip, beautiful downtown Burbank, Pas-cedena,
Balboa, and Huntington Beach (where we could-n't
get that permit to do the play).
Meeting some of the "Jesus freaks" from the Jesus
People Church and Training Center was the shot in the
arm we needed. Thanks, too, for the unity we exper-ienced.
Thanks, most of all, God, for traveling with us to and
from California and for staying with us the four days we
were there. We learned that we have to take You with us
wherever we go. You're the most important and nec-essary
part of Lambs Players. Thanks again for everything.

The Not Corner
Team back
with trophy
by Wendell Wahlin
The Bethel baseball team re-turned
from a successful training
episode in Florida with a second
place trophy and a 2-1 record
after participating in the Boca
Raton Invitational Tournament
during Easter vacation.
The Royals defeated Barring-ton
College, Rhode Island, Hol-ton
College, New York, and lost
to olivet ' Nazarene, Illinois.
Teams from all four schools
stayed in Bible Town, a winter
Christian Conference Center lo-cated
just outside Boca Raton.
The schedule of activities for
the 14- team members and Coach
Trager included morning prac-tices
Monday through -Wednes-day
with afternoons off for
"lots of free time to soak up
those golden-rays!" Thursday
through Saturday. The Royals
played in the competition tour-ney
games.
Coach Trager said that the
three purposes for going to Flor-ida
were realized; "the outside
practice and early competition
were accomplished, squad unity
was greatly advanced, and spirit-by
Mark Anderson
Bethel's track team, com-monly
and affectionately known
as the "Crazy Eights," vacation-ed
in Missouri and Arkansas dur-ing
Easter break.
A meet the first day on the
road at Wartburg College in
Iowa proved to be disastrous
complicated by 35 0 tempera-tures
and three inches of mud
on the track. However, the team
ran well in the three remaining
meets.
Due to a lack of personnel,
the team had to forfeit many
field events as well as a running
event in each meet. The result
was a 50-5 deficit by the time
the running event' occured.
The best performance as a
whole was against Southwest
Baptist College. Against School
of the Ozarks, the team pract-ically
matched them point for
point in the events they compet-ed
in.
Opposing a well-balanced
John Brown University squad in
the last meet, with the track
men plagued by shin-splints,
sore muscles, and travel fatigue,
did not perform as well as in the
previous meets.
Some of the more outstand-ing
performances included Phil
James' winning ways in the
quarter (three for four) and, as
one team member adds, "his un-canny
ability to keep the
car keys from Coach Gladder."
Rick Berggen ran five half-miles
in both the Southwest
Baptist and the School of the
Ozarks meets. He also found the
golden Easter Egg at John
Brown University's Easter egg
hunt.
Dave Asp ran his lifetime best
in the 100 yard dash and per-formed
well in all 18 events he
competed in, in the four meets.
Gary Hipp consistently won
both the high and intermediate
hurtles in spite of the tapeworm
which kept sapping his energy.
Mark Anderson won the mile
at Southwest Baptist, despite the
Coach's warning that he was be-coming
a "dough boy on stills."
Bob Berggren's week was
highlighted by his 220 yard vic-tory
against School of the Ozarks
which was inspired by the "shot-putter."
ual growth among the players
was evidenced."
"And the team," Coach Tra-ger
judged, "performed admira-bly
in all respects:"
The first game pitted Bethel
against Barrington College, the
Royals stopping them 6-2. Bob
Brodin went the distance giving
up two runs on two hits and
five walks with nine strike-outs.
Barrington scored one run in
the first inning without a hit,
aided by two walks and a pair of
Royal errors. Bethel tied the
game in the third on Brodin's
walk, a stolen base by courtesy
runner Steve Shodin and a single
by Dave Pearson.
Bethel's big inning came in
the fifth when two runs were
scored on five hits, the big one
being Steve Hanson's double.
The Royals plated five runs in
this inning, starting with Dave
Pearson's reaching on an error.
Steve Wilson drew a walk, fol-lowed
by Steve Hanson's single
to right to score Pearson. Gary
Clark reached on another error,
Denny Zaderaka forced another
error, and Jack Auffant closed
Phil McLain ran a fine quarter
at John Brown. Every morning,
however, found Phil drooling
over his idol the "Cookie Mon-ster"
on Seasame Street.
Rick Casteel twice threw the
javelin over 150 feet and exhibit-ed
great courage both on and off
the field.
Coach Reynolds was with the
team the first half of the week
and helped especially with his
strategy at the Southwest Bap-tist
meet. However, Coach
Reynold's strategy did not help
him in trying to get out of a
bathroom at the Southwest Bap-tist
men's dorm commented the
team.
Coach Glader led the team
According to Coach Leon
Narvaez, the Bethel tennis team
has been working hard on vari-ous
local courts and expects to
surpass their former 7-5 record
this year.
Returning Royal players are
Kim Gustafson, Gary Ask, Steve
Bloom, Dave Selvig and Steve
Lee. Two new players, Jim Nel-son
and Pete Calhoon, have also
been added.
In a match at Concordia last
Tuesday, Bethel "whomped
them in both singles and , dou-bles,"
commented one fan.
Scoring in doubles was:
Gustaf on-Nelson 6-1 , 6-1
Ask-Bloom 6-1 , 6 -1
Lee-Selvig 6-2 , 6-1
Scoring in singles was just as
high with:
Gary Ask 4-6, 6-1 , 6 -3
Steve Bloom 6-0 , 6 -4
Pete Calhoon 6-1, 6-1
Kim Gustafson 6-1 , 6 -1
Jim Nelson 6-2 , 6-1
Dave Selvig 6-0, 6-0
In other matches this season
the team won on a forfeit by
Augsburg and were defeated by
Hamline 5-3.
Right now the team says
their biggest problem is their
small size, adding that any men
interested in joining them should
contact Leon Narvaez immedi-ately.
the scoring with a solid base hit.
Friday, Bethel faced the tour-ney
champion, a strong, well-bal-anced
team from Olivet
Nazarene College. Lowell Rich-ardson
went the distance in this
game, walking only one and
scattering nine hits. He gave up
five runs by striking out 14.
for the last half of the week. He
sacrificially let the team use
both of his cars for the trip and
was content with riding "shot-gun"
most of the time.
The outlook for the remain-der
of the season is quite bright.
Each of the "Crazy Eight" is
strong in his respective events.
However, the team does lack
desired depth and will have pro-blems
winning meets.
Many meets will be held in
the vicinity of Bethel. And if
one team member's parents
could travel all the way from St.
Paul to Arkansas to watch a
meet, Bethel students should be
able to support the team when
it runs near Bethel.
The next two tennis matches
will be home meets versus Be-midji
State Monday, April 26 at
3 :00 and Pillsbury College Wed-nesday
April 26 at 3 :00.
Dave Selvig returns a serve in
a doubles match against Con-cordia.
As a team, Bethel picked up
two runs on five hits and four
errors. Gary Clark's double in
the fourth proved to be Bethel's
big hit as the Royal's proceeded
to bring home two runs on
three hits.
Coach Trager said that the
team had its best offensive day
with eight runs on 14 hits in the
game against Holton College Sat-urday.
The big hits in the final
game were the two doubles by
Steve Hanson and Steve Wilson,
and a triple by Jim Feldman.
The big inning came in the sixth
with four runs crossing the plate.

Denny Zaderaka's bases-loaded
single scored two and Jim Feld-man's
triple brought in two
more.
Reflecting back on the trip,
Coach Trager said, "It was very
worthwhile. We realized our ob-jectives
and we won a couple
ballgames. We didn't have any
serious problems in travel or
amongst team members.
"Everyone had an outstand-ing
attitude. Now we are looking
forward to a great season, and
the trip to Florida is without a
doubt going to get us off to a
great start."

The major league baseball season is in full swing and there
have already been some surprising happenings. Looking into my
crystal baseball, here's how the pennant races should shape up:
National League East National League West
American League East American League West
During the Florida baseball trip, Denny Zaderaka picked up
the nickname "sheik." This prompted a teammate to remark, "If
Denny was on third base and scored on a sacrifice fly -- wouldn't
that be called Bringing in the Sheik?"
The fan mail has been pouring in so I'll take this opportunity
to answer two letters I received.
From Anonymous: Had quite a laugh when 2nd Old got
beat by 20 points after you picked them as intramural
Champs. You sports editors mess up everything and you
all do it exactly alike.
Comment: Listen sausage brain - either get glasses or
have someone read the Hot Corner to you.
From Baltimore Orioles Fan: Do you really think De-troit
can win the pennant without Denny McLain?
Their pitching staff is nothing without him.
Comment: Didn't they win in 1945 when McLain was
one year old?
In the Boca Raton tournaments, Bethel left fielder Tim Eddy
attracted the favor of a big black bird that would periodically swoop
down at him. This seemingly indicates that Tim could be classified as
a Crow-Magnet man.
